Facilitators and Barriers to Skin-to-Skin Care for Preterm Infants in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

To improve SSC implementation in NICUs, it is essential that health care providers focus on individualized care, privacy, cultural sensitivity, and staff education. Future research needs to focus on implementation strategies facilitating SSC while decreasing barriers, as well as outcomes associated with SSC across diverse NICU settings.
